[linux-lvm] mounting a filesystem on LVM2

[linux-lvm] mounting a filesystem on LVM2

[Tapas Mishra]

I just created an LVM and using cfdisk I created a / type ext4
and swap filesystem in that.
Both are completely blank.
Is it possible to mount the above / filesystem in LVM at some place so
that I can write in it.
I am using LVM2.
I want to fill the data of a snapshot backup into this LVM.

Perhaps you should start by reading the howto.

Ok here is some output I feel I should mention

mount output is

It was a type error
on this lvm I created a filesystem in cfdisk whose type is 83 and
another whose type is 82.

Okay. In cfdisk, you don't create filesystems. And cfdisk is
of no use for dealing with LVM (besides maybe creating
partitions which have to be made PVs with pvcreate).

Hence the question: What filesystem is on this lv? And I'd
like to restate the advice from someone else:

I created partitions with cfdisk and the one of the partition is
partition number 83 I made it and another is 82 which is swap space.


> Hence the question: What filesystem is on this lv?
I was searching what is the code 83 corresponds to that I could not find
because if I remember 83,84 like that it was used for ext3/etx4 but
when I used cfdisk
i could not find a hex code corresponding to ext3,ext4.

Yes. The question was, what filesystem you've put
on the lv. cfdisk is (basically) of no use for LVM. And
even in old style partitioning, cfdisk isn't used for
creating filesystems.

You're using cfdisk? It shows they types, when you hit
"t" (for Types).

83 -> Linux
84 -> OS/2 hidden C: drive

Of course not. Partitiontypes don't have that much to
do with filesystem.

I have read it but what I am asking is not mentioned.
I am breaking an LVM which is not having any filesystem on it into 2 parts.
One will be used as root of type ext4 and another part will be used as
swap filesystem.
How can this be done.
mkfs.ext3 and mkswapfs commands exist but how to I break the LVM in to 2 parts.
I am not asking to extend or move or resize or taking snapshot of the
LVM which is given in your LVM Howto.
If you used virt-manager it does that
any user space program will show you one LVM but inside it will be
having ext3 and swap partition within same LVM.
I do not want to have different LVM for swap and ext3.
I want both these filesystems to co exist.
This thing is not mentioned in the LVM How to.

partitions, just like any other block device.
Preferably use parted as opposed to fdisk, as
fdisk can support only up to 2 TB.

You mean to say within the LVM if I use parted that way I will be able
to create two different filesystems existing together.
Until now what ever I came across internet is mkfs.ext3 and mkswapfs but
they work on two different LVM and will convert those LVM into ext3
and swap respectively.
I want to break one LVM into 2 one of which I want to populate with a
root filesystem
and another with swap.

"LVM" stands for Logical Volume Manager. You can't break it up.  It is a set
of software.  (Well, you can, but then it wouldn't work so good.)  Some things
you might be trying to say:

1) a "PV" is a Physical Volume.  You add these to to a Volume Group, and
   once you do that you can do one of the following.

2) a "VG" is a Volume Group.  This you can "break up" into many logical
   volumes.  Use the lvcreate command to create logical volumes, one
   for your filesystem and another for your swap.

3) an "LV" is a Logical Volume.  An advanced user might want to use an
   LV to simulate a disk, putting a partitional table on it.  Usually
   this is done by using the LV as a virtual disk for a Virtual Machine,
   which then partitions and uses the virtual disk as it pleases.
   You could also use fdisk/parted to partition an LV, and kparted to
   make the partitions available as separate block devices.

Re: [linux-lvm] mounting a filesystem on LVM2

[Alexander Skwar]

hi.

You seem to be confused about the steps that are required for
"getting a directory to store stuff" on Linux. Let me give you a
basic workflow:

In old fashioned partition setup:

a) Get a storage device (hard disk, SSD, FC, iSCSI, ...)
 -> Result: Device "file" like /dev/sda
b) Split the storage device into chunks of wanted size ("partitions")
 using tools like fdisk, cfdisk, parted === REQUIRED TO BE DONE!
 -> Result: Device "files" like /dev/sda1, /dev/sda3, /dev/sda15
f) On those partitions, create a filesystem (eg. mkfs.ext3) or swap (mkswap)
g) Mount

In LVM, you'd do:

a) Get a storage device (hard disk, SSD, FC, iSCSI, ...)
 -> Result: Device "file" like /dev/sda
b) Split the storage device into chunks of wanted size ("partitions")
 using tools like fdisk, cfdisk, parted === COMPLETELY OPTIONAL!
 -> Result: Device "files" like /dev/sda1, /dev/sda3, /dev/sda15
c) "Declare" the "storage spot" (/dev/sda, /dev/sda3, ...) as physical
 volumes (pv) using pvcreate
d) Create a volume group (vg), using this/these pv(s)
e) On a vg, create logical volumes (lv) using lvcreate
f) On these/this lv, create a filesystem (eg. mkfs.ext3) or swap (mkswap)
g) mount

Steps a), f) and g) are identical in old fashioned way and LVM. Step
b) is required in partitioning way and optional in LVM setup.

It's also identical, that you only create ONE (1) filesystem on any
ONE (1) partition or lv. You do *NOT* create two or more filesystems
on one partition/lv (it's doable, but *EXTREMELY* unusual).

But that's also outlined in the LVM howto... Chapter 11.
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/commontask.html

You really should read it...

There are no codes for ext3,ext4.  There is a code for "Linux Fileystem".
Actually, you can put any code you feel like, and put any filesystem
you feel like.  It won't make any difference for creating and
mounting the filesystem.  The codes are strictly for documentation.
In some cases, they are also used for heuristics, like auto starting
raid arrays that are marked with the raid code.

This is exactly what I am looking at.
A tool virt-manager (from Red Hat does that)
how does it do ?
While installing a guest OS in an LVM I do not have to create a swap I
just point to the ISO on my server
and rest is done.
How is that part taken care of does virt-manager do it or the OS which
is being installed some thing from that makes sure that when you are
installing a guest OS in a virtualization environment then in an LVM
it will do.
Because I never needed to create partitions within LVM until I am
doing this setup to clone the LVM on the server to a
USB backup drive.

I did read and I could not find what I am trying.Can you exactly say
which point or para you see this being done what I asked?
I am not looking to create PV,VG I am trying to have two partitions
within LVM and then use them to populate with what ever I have.

1) man kpartx

2) "partitions within LVM" doesn't make sense.  LVM is a software package,
   not a storage device, and it doesn't do partitions.
   You probably mean "partitions within an LV".

Here is an example of using kpartx:

# lvcreate -L1G -n test vg_sdg
# fdisk /dev/vg_sdg/test
...
# sfdisk -l /dev/vg_sdg/test

If you want people to understand your questions, stop talk about "one LVM"
as if it was a storage device (virtual or real).  LVM is a software
package, and the objects you manipulate using it include

LV	Logical Volume
PV	Physical Volume
VG	Volume Group

In addition, kpartx creates virtual block devices.

Re: [linux-lvm] mounting a filesystem on LVM2

[K. Richard Pixley]

  This isn't right.

What you need to understand is that most file systems in unix and linux 
are built on the concept of a block special device.  A block special 
device is a block based device driver.  A block based device driver can, 
(in the general case), only read and write blocks from it's associated 
device, but it can do so in random order.  (As distinct from a character 
special device which, in the general case, can only read and write 
sequential characters like /dev/tty, (although blocking may be supplied 
by the device driver))

You can mkfs any block special device.  You can also use block special 
devices without using mkfs as sequential access devices and write 
whatever you want to them directly, although you'll need to use a 
blocking program like dd or tar in order to get them written solely in 
blocks.  In the past this was used for writing to sequential block 
devices like tape drives.

Many physical devices come from the vendor with block special devices.  
This includes disk drives, floppy disks, optical drives, and things that 
mimic disk drives like some types of solid state storage.

There are also games that can be played at the block device level.  Mkfs 
puts a file system on a block special device which allows it to be 
mounted in the systems file name space.  Partitioning allows you to take 
a single block special device and break it up into several smaller block 
special devices, each of which could potentially be used individually in 
any of the ways I've described.

LVM is a way of aggregating block special devices.  That is, it can take 
several block special devices and combine them to produce a single, 
artificial, (in the sense that there is no single associated physical 
device), block special device.  Actually, it creates a pool of blocks 
from which block special devices can be allocated, so there could be 
multiple block special devices allocated from the same pool.  And any of 
these devices could be partitioned or potentially reused in other block 
device manipulations.  LVM is usually used to provide mirroring, 
striping, aggregation, run time relocation, snapshots, or some 
combination of these.

Other available block device manipulations of which I'm aware include 
compression, remote access, fail over fault tolerance, wear leveling, 
load balancing, and the ability to create a block based device using a 
file located on an existing file system.

You don't have to partition a block device before you mkfs it.  You can, 
but you can also just mkfs it.  This is true regardless of whether the 
device is associated with a particular physical device or whether the 
device was created using LVM.
